Chairman of the Board of Management, the Rev Dr Paul Beasley-Murray welcomes you to this the revised website, and invites you to read through a sample issue.

Welcome to the upgraded Ministry Today website.

At first sight it may not look a lot different, but you'll notice there's a new link on the left sidebar which opens the Archive of all our back numbers and our Search facility to all visitors to the site.

Click through and you'll see that we've added a Concordance index which ranges across the entire archive.

These changes make our entire archive visible to web search engines, which we hope will spread the Ministry Today message more widely than was possible before, when only material in the "Sample Issue" could be seen in results obtained from general internet searches.

We hope these changes will help you to enjoy Ministry Today even more than before, and, as always, we welcome feedback from users - subscribed members and visitors alike.
